oh, the indignities...

Poor Bean...had to take her to the emergency vet today. Nothing horrible, thankfully...a urinary tract infection that I caught very early, so it's just a round of antibiotics for her. Part of having a disabled cat: with her nerve damage and bad hips, she can't move as much as she should, can't clean as well as she should, so she is prone to these things. Noticed that she was going into the litter pan every few minutes with no success, so I called the vet...they referred me to an emergency clinic, and away we went.

So she had to be submitted to poking, prodding, trying to get a urine sample, as well as the ongoing ordeal of twice daily droppers of medication, baby wipes along the hinder, and having her bathroom habits monitored. Oh, the kitty indignities...
